Love Scrapbook Layout

This is my Scrapbook Layout for the CTMH Convention Layout Contest last week.
I was beyond thrilled when I won one of 10 top prizes.

The theme was "Who tells your story" and could be of a past or present event.
The entire base of the layout and the flowers were made of white cardstock which I tinted using Sapphire, Sorbet and Lagoon Re-inker in the CTMH Spray Pens.
I heavily distressed the 2nd layer of white cardstock with the Edge Distresser and embossed vertical line using the embossing tool.
The leave and most of the flowers came from the CTMH Cricut Flower Market Cartridge.
I used the matching Sapphire, Sorbet and Lagoon cardstock for the photo mats.
The word LOVE was cut using the CTMH Cricut Artbooking cartridge
I was so happy with the finished result and even happier that it won xx Hope you like it as much - Love Sara xxx

No Worries Scrapbook Class


This is my favorite layout from our How To Books and I think it works just perfectly with this 'No Worries' paper pack,
This is my class for next month and I cant eat to teach it. I love the basket weave design on the cashmere paper and the stamping and matching embellishments are fabulous.
Ive used the stitch guide to piece the white photo mats which add a fun texture to them.
Hope you like it and I would love you to join my class xx
If you cant make my class and would like to make this for yourself - head over to my website at https://sarabatkin.closetomyheart.com/default.aspx to order the No Worries Workshop your way, matching stamp sets and the Green Triangles and I will send you the cutting guide for free :o)
